When will Tom Hanks’ new movie “Here” be released?
“Here,” due out Nov. 15, is directed by Zemeckis, who co-wrote the screenplay with Eric Roth.
The duo was also behind the six-time Oscar winner “Forrest Gump,” which celebrates its 30th anniversary next month.
What is “Here”?
According Vanity fair, the camera doesn’t move as “Here” shows how a family home changes hands − and appearance − over time, even as far back as prehistoric times. Hanks plays a young Richard well into his 80s.
“It only works because the performances are so good,” Zemeckis told the magazine.
“Both Tom and Robin immediately realized that, ‘OK, we’ve got to go back and channel what we were 50 or 40 years ago, and we’ve got to bring that energy, that kind of attitude, even raise the bar. our voices. Something like that”.
According to a Sony press release, “Here” is an “authentic film about multiple families and a special place they inhabit. The story travels across generations, capturing the human experience in its purest form.”
Watch the trailer for “Here”
The first trailer for “Here” was released on Wednesday, teasing a “cinematic journey through time.”
Using a single static shot that never changes, the footage shows the same location over many years — from prehistoric times, when dinosaurs roam the Earth, to modern times. As the centuries pass, a house where Hanks and Wright’s characters live is finally built on the land.
The trailer then teases a story that covers all the different events that happen in the same room in the characters’ lives. At the end of the shot, Hanks and Wright’s protagonists are now elderly and return to the room, which is now empty except for two folding chairs.
“This was our home,” Hanks says. “This is where we lived.”
Paul Bettany also appears in the trailer as Hanks’ character’s father, despite being 14 years younger than the actor in real life.
Who else will star in Sony’s ‘Here’?
The film will mainly focus on the characters and the fictional family of Hanks and Wright, but will also take a look at the people who lived in their house before them.
Paul Bettany (“WandaVision”) and Kelly Reilly (“Yellowstone”) will play Richard’s parents and actors Michelle Dockery (“Downton Abbey”), Gwilym Lee (“Bohemian Rhapsody”), David Fynn (“The Pembrokeshire Murders”) and Ophelia. The film will also star Lovibond (“Minx”).
